Yes, but the times involved are much smaller.
How do seek and rotational delays affect Flash RAM?
If you spin around in a circle fast enough while holding the flash card, all the bits slide to the outside edge where they're harder to reach. ;)

Wouldn't the increased acceleration from centripetal forces get you to the outside edge faster, counterbalancing that effect?

I suppose moving the data back 'uphill' would increase the transfer delay though...
